Steph Duran

Born and raised in Albuquerque… proud to be a homegirl! My senior year in high school, I was lucky enough to get an internship at a local station and fell in love with radio! From then on, it was all radio for me! Got to live and work in Santa Barbara, then Phoenix, then Saint Louis. Whew!! All throughout my career, in the back of my mind (& always in my heart), I planned on coming home. In 2014, stars aligned and I came HOME to work for Cumulus.
